Dear all,

This is Miniature Alliance earliest 1/35 figure sculpted by the talented Calvin Tan. The figure must be a decade now but quality of the sculpting is still excellent for today's standard. I admired this figure for a long time and finally Paul Quek sent me one and I had the chance to paint it up. A break from the usual Axis...

It is painted later part of the Burma Chindit war time where the uniform is in "Jungle green" instead of Khaki. Hope you like it and feel free to critics welcome






Happy modelling
Allan

Hi Matt,
You can paint it in Aussie version too...

Hi Alan, Phil
Given it was a old kit, earlier is was out of production and may not easily get in local hobby shop. You can contact Minature Alliance directly and I knew that this sets is now re-issue in resin. Good luck

Happy modelling
